Dear Foamers,
I would like to use the BC "externalWallHeatFlux" by specifying a non-uniform value for the HF. Apparently this is possible, provided a Function 1 is used, as discussed in this post: Time varying externalWallHeatFlux


I did it with the expression syntax for a uniformFixedGradient but I also need to use the "thin wall" model and thus I should better use the externalWallHeatFlux.


Any suggestion or help is greatly appreciated.
BR,
Luca

EDIT:
The Function 1 cannot be used for my purpose. I guess that I have to write a new BC if I want to include a non-uniform HF in the "externalWallHeatFlux" BC of OF v2106.

As stated above I am able to define a non-uniform HF by using the expression syntax with "uniformFixedGradient" type BC but I cannot consider a wall thickness. If someone has an idea it is greatly welcome!
Luca
